Gifted with a golden voice or not, each of us would always have a time for singing? Even if we don't feel like doing it for we might just be bombarded with destructive feedback, but we might as well do it in our private places where no one can hear us. We can't stop ourselves even when we feel like singing for joy or even in tears. There are a lot of reasons why a person should sing irregardless with his quality of voice. What makes you feel singing?

I donĀ“t care about my voice (not the best) but I love to sing while Im taking a shower. I think that the intimacy of the bathroom, the warm water healing body and soul, the relax that comes with a shower, helps to want to sing. Sometimes I find myself singing a song I have not heard for ages. Happy posting!

OH YES! I sometimes find it funny when I unconsciously sing songs from old ages, maybe out of an overwhelming feeling. All the more, I experiment things and make my own versions of these. I have had been singing these songs and eventually became my favorite. Since then, I started to like old-aged songs like wooden heart, there's a kind of hush, quando quando, tie a yellow ribbon (round the old oak tree), crying in the rain, dont cry for me argentina, killing me softly, careless whisper and a lot more.

I had to look up your profile when you wrote down the music you sing.It sounded my age. Welcome to the best music ever.

Yes! The best music ever! Those reminiscent songs make me even appreciate more life and learn that immortality of life's beauty is possible through songs.

I actually sing when I'm happy or when a random song pops up in my head. Sometimes, I sing along with my favorite song and at times when some people are so quiet. Some kind of way to break tension.

Random songs make me feel better. Whatever song comes out in your mind will actually determine the way you feel of the moment.The melody of the song will also reflect what you have felt inside. But there's nothing to worry anyway since happy songs are always in my mind. If ever I fall for someone, my friends can easily detect because of the changes of my song preferences. LOL

Yes I agree! Sometimes when you feel that you're in love, you can't help but just sing sappy love songs and stay in some sort of happy place. Singing is really fun too when you spend a friends' night out. Going to karaoke and just letting go! A great stress reliever!

I nearly went professional with my singing, but then my voice was ruined because I got sick to many times, I have been regaining it back, but I do not think that I will ever be able to sing like I did.

That's sad. Just stay positive anyway. Be appreciative that once you had had a great voice. Though, now you still have a good voice.

i believe in the capability of a song to lessen ones stress. eventhough i can sing a song but not as golden as you have said i still sing out loud in the privacy of my room or even to a friends videoke if my stress is so high. after singing a couple of songs, i feel energetic again to do the following days work..

I can also feel it. The magic of singing makes you feel relieved and not stressed anymore. The energy is regained. Your power is refreshed. And I admit, I am no golden voice. I can sing but my voice is 'pitchy'.

Well, I don't sing often especially in public coz I'm a terrible singer But regardless of my shyness, I would feel like singing when I'm in such a good mood or received a very good news. Also when I'm super happy and in love. That would definitely make me sing regardless of the voice I had.

I find that whenever I am in a good mood I break into song. Whether I'm just feeling bubbly and happy or particularly if something good has just happened to me- that will set me off. I also like to sing in the shower. The acoustics in showers and bathrooms make every one sound good so that's why people tend to sing a lot in the shower! I think every one should sing, regardless of whether or not you consider yourself to have a pleasant singing voice.

Everytime I am sad or feeling alone I would sing my favorite song loud that the neighbor next door could hear me... hahaha, it's a sad fact that I am not gifted with a golden voice but no one could stop me from singing my friend when it comes to my favorite one!!!

well i sing mostly when i am excited, and when i play the guitar, i try to find some chords that could make up some progression and try to sing along, it feels nice, it's so nice i came up with a hollow song that way and i have to put in the lyrics, i don't really sing great and i am shy and only sing mostly when i am alone, i believe i have considerably or say reasonably ok types voice. ..

I sing too, but rarely when I can't control my emotion it maybe I'm happy or sad... Its a good way of pouring out your emotion that can't be hold back...

Hi, u r right friend, when we are in mood we feel like singing. I have no good voice, with which i can sing, but when i am overwhelmed with joy, i sing song. Also when i am too sad i sing sad songs. Some time when in bathroom, while taking bath also i sing some song. I thinks excess of emotions or completely relaxed satge of mins makes me sing.
